According to the response from Airtec, the unit was activated at jump 183, but they didn't receive the unit until after jump 343. Is it possible that the cutter didn't completely sever the reserve closing loop?

I was figuring that it had a "normal" activation back at jump 183.

It seems unlikely to me that it went 160 jumps with a partly severed loop.

But, you are right, I should have asked the OP for clarification on that too.

'If' it was the case that the unit had fired at jump 183 ... What would be the indications on the control unit every time that it was switched on after that (i.e from jump 183 - 343)?
